I modded my Original Switch but all I do is play retro games on an emulator (retroarch) on it! I look forward to the switch 2 but not for pirating. It is a bit of work though

I would just pirate at that point. You're paying for the streaming service anyways. Use mullvad to download the torrent :). I'm pretty sure they ignore dmca requests. Not that they even know their customer's names if you pay with Mullvad amazon card.

I store my passwords on an encrypted file partition sqlite database. My script grabs the pass and immediately closes the partition afterwards.

You can also just encrypt your passwords into individual encrypted files (one for each password) and have your script clear the gpg agent after a passfile is decrypted.

I like mullvad. You can buy a prepaid card off amazon. I figured out how to setup wireguard on various unixes Mac/linux/openbsd

i3 has pretty much been replaced by sway for me. Works great I have no problems with wayland as a regular user

I've been using device mapper+encryption to backup my files to encrypted filesystem on regular files. (cryptsetup on linux, vnconfig+bioctl on openbsd). Is there a reason for me to use borgbackup? Maybe to save space?

I even wrote python scripts to automatically cleanup and unmount if something goes wrong (not enough space etc). On openbsd I can even Double encrypt with blowfish(vnconfig -K) and then a diff alg for bioctl.

I use x64dbg to make cheats. It is a binary debugger for x64/32. Check it out and learn assembly/winapi.. For serious debugging of binaries you'll want a DMA device to inject into memory without a debugger attaching.

fzf, ripgrep are some command line tools I like. Check them out. Being able to quickly search your history with fuzzy finder is so useful.

Stealing crypto is so lucrative. So there is a huge 'market' for this stuff now that wasn't there before. Security is more important now than ever. I started sandboxing Emacs and python because I can't trust all the packages.

I use it, and even run wayland (sway) on my dell laptop. No bluetooth support. Encrypted disk. Takes a lot of time to setup. Generally similar to linux, but less hardware support.

I love org-mode with emacs. I use it to organize my notes / game hacks / todo / pretty much anything using a tree structure. You can use drawers to hide things like sample code.

I highly recommend OpenBSD for firewalls, vpn (wireguard), and other edge servers. It has served me well. I love how everything is organized.

how would this work with internationalized strings? especially if you have to change the order of things? You'd still need a string version with object ordering I would think
